Never A Dull Moment!

Matt and I live in a beautiful home that has belonged to the Esson family for years. Behind us are a few different shops and an office where the family business first originated. They are no longer used for business any longer, but mostly for storage of machinary and wood.

At an auction last fall.


Well, Sunday evening when we arrived home from Grammie's Thanksgiving dinner, we drove up to see one of the shops on fire due to an accident!



Next year's wood...
It was a bit scary because it was so dry and we could see the ashes and sparks flying toward the house, but the Lord took care of us and kept everyone safe. We did lose the building, but not much else.


The next morning -a different view from our house now!





So -how was your Thanksgiving weekend? :0)

Hey Steph!

That is scary! I wouldn't have liked seeing a fire that big so close to my home. I'm glad no one was hurt, and nothing major was lost.
So how are you? Have you been working lots? I'm in the Learning Center this year and am loving it. We'll have to chat soon!
